My Sesame and Poppy Seed Savoury Muffin Recipe

A great savoury muffin recipe that's crying out for a nice cream cheese dip

My Sesame and Poppy Seed Savoury Muffins

I think people are going to start calling me "The Muffin Man" soon as I seem to make them quite regularly. Ironically for someone with a sweet tooth I have been more inclined to work on some recipes for savoury muffins of late. Today's muffin idea was to use the packs of sesame seeds and poppy seeds that were left in our cupboards.

My £1.99 B + M Bargains silicon muffin mould has been getting some serious use recently. I'm definitely getting my money's worth from it.

Ingredients I used for My Sesame and Poppy Seed Muffins

(Will make 10-12 medium savoury muffins)

250 grammes of self-raising flour

100 grammes of sesame seeds

80 grammes of poppy seeds

250 ml milk

3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

3 large free-range eggs

You will also need a muffin tray (silicon are good)

My Lemon And Lime Curd Muffin Recipe

The Lone Male Loves Lemon

Lemon is one of my favourite flavours in the whole world. I'd rather have a slice of lemon drizzle cake over a big slab of something chocolaty. I love that slightly sour zest that comes from fresh lemon and this week received a gift of some lovely lemon and lime curd from a friend which seemed destined to go into a cake of some kind.

I love a good muffin although recently have only really made some savoury varieties so here's my first attempts at making some lemon and lime curd muffins. I used a slight variation on my recipe for cheesy Double-Gloucester Savoury Muffins and it worked well.

I didn't fancy complicating things by having a big dollop of fruity curd in the middle of my muffins. Instead I went for a light and fluffy lemon curd muffin with a gentle zesty taste of lemon and lime throughout. They were almost more like those like Madelaine style breakfast cakes you sometimes get on a continental breakfast buffet while away in countries like Spain.

Picnic Panache- Cheesy Savoury Muffins With Double Gloucester

We've been lucky this summer as July has been a fantastic month and August is usually fairly warm too. This weekend is also forecast to be nice so I thought I'd make some picnic basket filling cheesy Double Gloucester savoury muffins in case the opportunity arises to savour them in the sunshine. The British summer is usually so short that we learn to really make the most of it.
